Victor was in an accident, and had to have the majority of his body amputated to survive. Distraught, Silas took Victor to S.T.A.R. Labs to try experiments on him to save his life which he begins recording. Using a Mother Box, an Alien sentient super computer which he manages to turn on, it begins to bond with Victor's body, growing cybernetic limbs and restoring Victor's body into a Cyborg. Alarmed, Silas turns off the recording.
